Hi, I’m Melissa

This blog documents my practice as an artist/ jeweller / designer / writer and lapsed interior architect.

All posts are written by me, with quotes as noted. The texts presented in the Conference Papers and Symposia sections were first delivered at the events as indicated in each introduction, and are collected here for reference.

The Juukan Tears and 1.1.2017 pages catalogue single research / art projects and their associated outcomes.

I do most of the photography, so if you plan to reuse, please note Melissa Cameron as the photographer. Some images, including those featured on invitation cards (reprinted with permission), are by others, who retain copyright, as do the other artists whose works feature in posted photos. If your work is featured in an image that you don’t want to see here, please get in touch and it will be removed ASAP.

My website hosts yet more images of my work, but is currently an archive of older works – pre 2013. Until it is rebuilt (coming soon!) I advocate checking the Highlights page of this site for a sample of recently completed projects.

In website endeavours I’m assisted by the wonderful TurboNerd, who codes with unparalleled verve and speed, and who kindly makes the architecture more or less operable to me, a computer science drop-out!

Favorite tool: a tie between AutoCad LT and the 100mm Vallorbe saw frame combined with 6/0 Glardon Vallorbe blades.  Or PUK welder, or the drill press… sometimes even the camera….
